There is a company called Speed Hut: http://www.speedhut.com/gauges/diesel-tach/search:diesel+tach That link will take you to their diesel tach section. I don't have their tach yet but have several of their other gauges and I love them! If you check them out, make sure you look at all of the...

I am not real sure of this, but I think running w/o that sensor can cause the plugs to overheat to the point of failure. I had put my rebuilt motor in and had damaged the original plug in the process, figured no big deal, just run w/o it until I get a new one, I ended up burning up a whole set...

Sharecropper, I would try and find one of the threaded blockoff plates like I did, its the part like on the drivers side where the glow plug temp sensor is Maybe a fellow SS member has one to sell or someplace like Hillbilly wizard or Saturn surplus. Then you can just replace the one at the rear...

I found this post on another forum while looking for a different issue. I have searched hear with several different searches, and could not find a user here by this name "85-1028" Does anyone know about using a new or civi card and just doing a little rewiring? In some of my searching on this...

Deepsea, I just took a look at the results on Allied and noted that some of them are diff. voltages. I am planning on trying to repair mine, I dont have it here in front of me, but you might see if the one on your card has a specific number, or man. and go from there.

I installed mine on the pass. side head after getting one of the threaded blockoff plates. I had temp. bought a cheap set from summit, a mechanical OP and temp gauge and no matter what I did, I could not get the sending unit to seal. Like I said, it was cheap, the set was only $20, so other than...

ssdvc, no, your not missing anything. I just did a quick search and it looks like they are out of them. You can look under any year.model vehicle that uses the 6.2l and the nozzle will be the same. Their inventory changes frequently, so check back or give them a call.The same thing goes if you...

Yea, I figured the whole thing would be a DIY project, not something I plan on doing as the ride really does not bother me that much, even after a cpl back surgeries. It was just kinda a "hey, what if" moment. I never thought of uneven twisting being an issue, could make the whole thing no...

I dont even use the stud, I have a bolt the correct size, sorry I cant tell you what that is now, but I just find it easier to work with this way.

I already have a 6.5l pump, my truck came with a 6.5l repower courtesy of Uncle Sam. The injectors I currently have are demension wise, exactly the same as the ones that came out of the 6.5l turbo I got for my rebuild

I wonder with a welder and a little fabbing you could make a set of these work on the stock bench on an M1008 and other trucks? Just right off hand I would think maybe the tranny tunnel would get in the way...any other thoughts?

topgun217, when you say you have a halogen on one GE on the other, are you referring to the maker of the bulb or the type of bulb? If they are different types, I bet you will see the problem follow the bulb if you follow Warthogs suggestion.

I have decided I am going to give rebuilding my injectors a try, I took a spare I had apart today and they are crazy simple inside! One question i do have is, the 96 turbo tips are $15 as apposed to $7 that Westech mentioned, still a heck of a deal. My question though, what is the difference...

I rebuilt my 6.5l turbo and just ended up putting it back in N/A for now until I can afford to have the custom exhaust work done to keep the exhaust in the frame so I can add a 2nd fuel tank. As Westech said, either just switch intakes, IP, and the other few sensors these motors have and go from...

I really like your idea, I agree with being able to put the shackles on and I had thought about the idea of one set of "mounts" or square tubing on the top of the mount and another set on the bottom. The reason for this is to allow the winch to be mounted on the front or rear of my truck, The...

Hello, I have a quick question reguarding using the sites search feature. If I know that for instance I want to find a referance in a post to a "thingamagig" and I know the post was in say the CUCV hotrodding section, I search for thingamagig and find a thread in that section referring to it...

Wow Tim, sounds like you know MUCH more about peltiers with high power applications than I do! My use was quite a few years ago as far as the tech world goes, .25-,5 MP CCD units so we are truly talking apples and oranges! We were mainly trying to keep the CCDs cool to limit thermal noise which...

I've had the time to read through a lil more of your thread. I saw where you were talking about water cooling LED light assemblies. Have you looked into peltier coolers? I did some work with astro photo cameras and early CCD chips, which need to be cooled to used in astro work and they are very...

Hi, I will admit right off I have not read your whole thread, but I did see you mentioned insur. If you have not found anything yet, you might try Grudny World Wide. They are a collector car company and will insure lots of different/custom projects. I used them for my vette and they are VERY...

Westech, I would be very interested in this. I am sure it is not beyond my ability as I just finished building the engine thats in the truck now. MY first diesel, but I have built many gassers. My question is, where do I find the rtebuild kits? I have done a quick, far from exhaustive search and...
